Photograph of a large hall full of seated devotees in white and coloured clothing. In the foreground, a person with very long dark braided hair, wearing an orange and leopard-print garment with a tiger-striped cloth, sits with their back to the camera on a golden bull-shaped seat, beside a tall golden trident. Two large screens at the top show a crowd. The person is not clearly identified; the page indicates a person, but the back-facing figure lacks sufficient visible cues, so the presence is uncertain.
